    Well, I suggested this method assuming, maybe wrongly. that Bubba might want to substitute a custom soundfile, a bit of Hendrix perhaps.

    Does anyone know where I can get the 'alternative' winxp startup sound, the one that starts off normally and winds down like a broken record player.

    It is what it's.
